If someone is "in a mood," it means they're feeling cross, but there are so many moods. I'm going to start saying someone is in a mood if they're happy, excited, tired, or any of the other moods there are.
in reply to Emily Velasco

In a mood can also mean incorrigibly silly. This is a common affliction of those who are 3yo.
in reply to Emily Velasco

It feels very similar to, "we're due for some weather." *Of course* we are.


Remember folks, every time you use #AI, you are taking part in a #techbro #billionaire's science experiment. What it does to you, the people around you, the structures of the #economy and #society you live and work in is as much a part of the experiment as the output/outcome you seek to generate. Think hard and long about that before you expose yourself, your children or potential other third parties to unproven and experimental #technology. Be extra careful if your or someone elses physical or mental well being may be affected. Extra specifically do not gift that stuff for #christmas.

It is so wild to notice how much US English pronunciation has changed with words like "mountain", "important", etc.

Younger people (than me) now seem to put a glottal stop there. It is the weirdest fucking thing to me. I first noticed it in Sarah Kendzior's speech but now I hear it all over YouTube and Michael Che just did it as well. It's not just regional, it seems. #Language

in reply to David Mitchell

@DavidM_yeg @darius It's not like the way I pronounce these words is a pure 't', either, but I don't put a glottal stop there.
in reply to Megan Lynch (she/her)

@DavidM_yeg yes, the video has a great illustration of "T flapping" (which is probably what you do) and the full "T glottal". I do something between the two but probably closer to a flap.
